I could, but it'll be removable (tail). Also, it'll be cardboard, no surprise. I'm only keeping this car for a year, so the mods don't need to be durable goods quality.

Errr... What are you driving in the meantime through the snow and cold? Blackfly?




That's my primary local vehicle. And I don't have any out-of-town trips planned until New Year's Eve, so have plenty of time to mess around with the Civic.
